Sink repair in Caunton without replacing anything
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Our repair technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins, and people most frequently call us about chips on the rim or front edge and fine cracks across the glaze.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use mild cleaners only
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Caunton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access

Your questions about sink repair in Caunton
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Frequently. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Will you remove the sink?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Repair or replace in Caunton?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What affects the price in Caunton
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole basin
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
